2. Observations

The observations were obtained in 1994 May and 1995 June at the European Southern Observatory (ESO), using the 3.55 m New Technology Telescope (NTT) equipped with the SUSI camera and a tex2html_wrap_inline1316 thinned Tektronix ESO CCD # 25 at the Nasmyth focus B; the pixel size is tex2html_wrap_inline1318 (0.13'' on the sky), and the frame size is tex2html_wrap_inline1322. Observations were also obtained at the 1.54 m Danish telescope in 1994 May, using the Tektronix CCD ESO # 28 of tex2html_wrap_inline1316 pixels, with pixel size tex2html_wrap_inline1318 (0.37'' on the sky). The full field is tex2html_wrap_inline1330. The log-book of observations is given in Table 1 (click here).

In Figs. 1 (click here), 2 (click here) and 3 (click here) are shown respectively a NTT V image of Ter 10, a Danish V image of ESO tex2html_wrap_inline1192 38 and a NTT Gunn z image of UKS 1.

The reductions were carried out using DAOPHOT II. For the calibrations standard stars by Landolt (1983, 1992) were used. Details on the procedures are given in Ortolani et al. (1996a). For the 1994 run, the calibrations were carried out using the Danish observations, since the NTT observations were not photometric (see also the study of Terzan 2 observed in the same run by Ortolani et al. 1997). The photometric errors arise mostly from the zero point accuracy (tex2html_wrap_inline1352) and the magnitude transfer from the cluster images to the standard stars due to the crowded field, which can amount to 0.05 mag at the fainter magnitudes. The magnitude calibrations concern only V and I, whereas Gunn z magnitudes are instrumental.

The V, I and Gunn z data are given in Tables 2, 3 and 4 respectively for Terzan 10, ESO tex2html_wrap_inline1192 38 and UKS 1 (where magnitudes, colours and X, Y coordinates corresponding to pixels in Figs. 1 (click here), 2 (click here) and 3 (click here) are reported), available only in electronic form at the CDS-Strasbourg.
